MO Legislature Allocating $53M for I-29/I-35 Improvements

State Representative Maggie Nurrenbern Saves the Day: Because Nothing Screams "Putting Aside Party Politics" Like Allocating $53M


Clay County, USA - In a stunning display of political heroism, State Representative Maggie Nurrenbern has emerged as the savior of Clay County, graciously securing a whopping $53 million from the state budget. Huzzah!

Nurrenbern, a beacon of bipartisan cooperation, apparently managed to pry open the tightly sealed coffers of Republican leadership to address the heart-wrenching agony of I-29/I-35. How utterly selfless of her to navigate the treacherous waters of partisan politics, all for the noble cause of road construction.

In a statement dripping with modesty, Nurrenbern expressed her delight at contributing to the welfare of the Northland, as if she were merely donating to charity.

"This will benefit everyone from the Northland and everyone who drives through our area," Nurrenbern declared, presumably with a straight face. "Thrilled to play a part in this to ensure we keep moving the Northland forward!"

Yes, because nothing says "keeping the Northland moving forward" quite like dumping truckloads of taxpayer dollars into a project that could have been addressed years ago if the GOP led legislature weren't too busy engaging in the age-old tradition of partisan bickering.

Nurrenbern's courageous act of securing funding for a highway project surely ranks up there with the most heroic deeds in human history. Forget firefighters rescuing kittens from trees or doctors performing life-saving surgeries; allocating taxpayer money for road construction is the true mark of a modern-day superhero.

In conclusion, let us all bow down to the magnanimous State Representative Maggie Nurrenbern, whose valiant efforts have undoubtedly saved Clay County from certain doom. Long live the spirit of bipartisan cooperation, as long as it involves massive cash injections into infrastructure projects!
